2019 Art Basel Hong Kong is around the corner and will kick off on March 27th. As a gallery who participates in the seventh year, Soka Art will once again sets off from its historic perspective, presenting a group of contemporary artists of profound influence: Hong Ling, Mao Xuhui, Zhao Meng, Zhang Ying Nan and Mitsuhiro Ikeda. Spanning a variety of geographical and cultural backgrounds, the five distinct artists represent different possibilities in interpreting the chemistry between Asian and Western art and will both gather at the upcoming international art fair.

We look forward to meeting audiences and collectors from all over the world at booth 1B01 in the “Galleries" area!

Each year at Art Basel Hong Kong, Soka Art continues to present exhibitions with a systematic thinking. Whether it is a solo exhibition or a theme group exhibition, Soka believes in presenting ourselves on the international stage from the  horizontal view of art history, and looks forward to finding the original voice the for Asia-Pacific art. This time, Soka Art introduces the concept of "social landscape” with its 3 sub-divisions: "reproducing landscape image" , "reproducing landscape perspective" and "reproducing landscape field”, which can all be identified  in the works of artist Mao Xuhui: familiar object symbols, such as scissors, chairs, hangers, etc., to re-interpret the meaning of the language. As for Hong Ling and Zhao Meng,  the 2 artists choose instead to explore the Western modern art basing on the traditional values of the East, creating an innovative balance in between. Facing the rapid information exchange of the today, Zhang Yingnan and Mitsuhiro Ikeda define their self-existence and knowledge of the world through the transformation of space.
